WorldThe US now has access to more than half of Australia’s military bases – could it drag the country unwillingly into war?
The US military and US defence corporations control or can access 110 facilities in Australia, more than half of the country’s military installations. Analysts describe the footprint as a saturation, or even colonisation, of Australia’s military and warn that the alliance could pull Australia unwillingly into war. The facilities support intelligence gathering, satellite data access, training, communications interception and pre-positioned war matériel.
